    This image is from 1923 and to me, that looks like it could be the ring on her finger.
    That has 3 swirly things to me. They look like little flowers or something.

    These are from Getty, so higher resolution images would be available.

    Still no perfect matches....I'm not really sure why the post was moved to General Discussion? I've never even been on this page before and I assume most others haven't either......oh well?

    a ring that old looks very new, did it get restored or touched up?

    WOW....Thanks for all your help guys!

    I still have 100's and 100's of photos to get through and the response has been incredible! So far Josh has come up with something very interesting. Does anyone technologically savy know how to enlarge something without the distortion?

    Thats not to say that there aren't any better photos submitted...I just haven't gotten through them yet.

    One thing I know with 100% certainty....This is Babe Ruth's ring and he did in fact wear it.

    Here is a cool video:

    I have a wire photo of course this is a picture of a picture and the quality is garbage but i have the original in my possession i dont have a scanner or i would try to scan it in but the ring looks almost identical. The photo is of Will Rogers and Babe Ruth at the Boston Childrens Hospital its from 1929.
